More riveting on the rear aft top skin - 5 hours

 Its very slow going riveting solo, but I'm really happy with how well its turned out. The fit of the top skin with the fuse is excellent and makes up for me forgetting to edge roll those areas. The first session of riveting I was able to do most of the longeron line on both sides.



After supper I kept going and managed to finish most of the j-stiffener rivets.  By the end, I did all that I could solo...The rest I will need the help of a bucking partner so that I don't screw anything up. (Notice the odd rivets not done on the left side of the longeron?...I still need to make and install the static line clips)
